[GNC] Printer woes

2019-08-17 Thread James Fuller
I finally gave up looking for my missing backup files and re-entered the years transactions. I copied the chart of accounts which did save some time. Now I have a new problem. I attempted to print out a checking account transaction register and found that there is no printer icon shown.

The Transaction Report can produce various totals, including by account. But after you paste into a spreadsheet, you can strip the currency symbols with a find/replace. If that doesn’t change those cells to number, you could change the format on them. Most spreadsheets also have a function to

despite the error it does start up GnuCash, however, the preference page still is totally non-responsive. When you try and change ANY option, it doesn't allow you do so, totally non-responsive. i wasn't really worried about it cause i thought an appropriate css file would be a good enuf

Geert: 1. With regard to Gnucash not only filling the screen, but going off the screen, etc., etc., I did solve that problem by making adjustments in the display settings of the chromebook. Looks great, what a vacation for my eyes after squinting at GnuCash all these years. 2. With regard to

Based on this discussion I decided to try the flatpak on a Ubuntu Disco 19.04 system. (The work system with my critical GnuCash data is Ubuntu Bionic 18.04 LTS.) I haven't done any testing with real data, but I found it easy to install. Apparently the flatpak found a GnuCash test data file

Regarding the settings, this section in the flatpak documentation is probably relevant: http://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/sandbox-permissions.html#dconf-access I haven't figured it all out yet, but it seems flatpak itself is in a state of transition from using external dconf access to using a
